OUR PRIZE- WINNING TYPING TEAM. Although typing was introduced into Garfield only this year we have reason to be proud of our typing teacher. Miss Marian Arendt, and the great efficiency that her pupils have attained. At the school business show, held at the High School on May 9, novice teams of ten members each from the five Berkeley schools which have typing, were entered in a contest of speed and accuracy. Gar- field was winner, and our team was awarded the first prize, a beautiful silk banner. Bobbie Case, one of our team, won the medal for the best individual typist in the intermediate schools. Hurrah for our team, whose pictures adorn this issue of the Gleaner.

(Miss Fraser ' s Class) Through with two years ' work at Gar- field the low sevenths who arrived one rainy morning in the year 1919, are now in Miss Fraser ' s Low Nine advisory. The class consists of forty-two girls and boys. Among the members of the class, there are four new ones who came to this school this term: Jean McCallum, Dorothy Tewks- bury, Auda White and Roger Sears. At the beginning of the term we elected our class officers. Our president is Esther Cox; vice-president, Clayton Warren; sec- retary, Annabel Lee; and treasurer, Rol- land Elrod. There are some athletes in our class. Roger Sears, George Logan, Julian Smith, Walter Wyatt, Henry Eddy are those who play basketball. Walter Wyatt and Julian Smith both have played on the school baseball team as catchers. We also have a fine girls ' baseball team of which Mari- on Mortimer is captain, and Jean McCal- lum and Annabel Lee are members. There are five in our class who were in the victorious typing team, namely: Bob- bie Case, who won the medal; Rolland El- rod, Walter Wyatt, George Logan and Bernard de Guiere. All helped to win the banner for Garfield. On Arbor day our class planted a Mon- terey pine on the new school grounds. We all hope it will grow to be a beautiful tree. Many of the boys are members of the Glee Club. At the end of this term the two Low Ninth classes are going to give the High Nines a farewell party. Al- though we will miss the High Ninth when they are gone, we are glad that we will have the honor of being the highest and first class to graduate from the new Gar- field school. Our visit to the new school on the morning of May 27 made us feel that we could do better work next term than we have ever done before. LOW NINTH II. (Miss Grover ' s Class) The low ninth grade is very active in athletics. We have among our number a large percentage of aces in athletics. As an example, take husky F. W.; look F. B. over, and you find him fit. R. B. figures big on the team, and S. K. does fine. D. K. still equals that record he has be- hind him, e specially in that big basketball swing he has. We excel in basketball, baseball, and football teams. We practice every day some of these sports. Our three good captains are: Ray Gilmore, football cap- tain; Robert Booth, football captain, and Francis Wagner, captain of basketball. All are in Miss Grover ' s section of the Low Nine.

(Miss Kelton ' s Class) THE CLASS OFFICERS President Clifford Kinney Vice President Horace Haynes Treasurer Richard Wilkinson Secretary Walter Foss Recently we have discovered quite • an interesting fact about our class. Out of an enrollment of 46. all boys, only 15 were born in California, of whom 4 were born in Berkeley. The others came from the following states and foreign countries: Colorado. Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Montana. New Jersey. New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania. Washington. Washington, D. C. England, Germany, New Zealand and Panama. The president of our class. Clifford Kin- ney, was selected from the high eighth grades to present the class tree, the Se- quoiia Sempervirens. to the new Garfield. The greater number of our class belong to the Glee Club, which has had such a fine year under the patient training of Miss Wilson. We have enjoyed visits to the new school, the First National Bank of Berk- eley, and the Lmiversity. Our baseball team, under our capable manager. George Dunn, and Captain Rob- ert Nation has been a shining light in the Garfield athletic world. We won against ever}- class team except the High Ninth who had superior fielding. We are sorry to lose such good com- petitors as the High Nines, who go to High next year. Our main interest now is centered on the Oratorical Contest which takes place on Tuesday of the last week. If the neigh- borhood becomes alarmed at our wild gestures and loud voices, we hope they will soon realize that we are harmless and are only practicing our orations. Here ' s hoping we will all graduate and be the best Ninth Grade that Garfield has ever enjoyed, carrying to the new build- ing all the good traditions and best school spirit that has been established in the past.
